Hi Ira,

It is not clear to me whether your primary motivation is getting rid of
qmail in favour of a more modern, fully-featured mail server or making
your email "NSA-proof". If it is the latter, the effect of this whole
exercise on your ability to cause NSA even a minor inconvenience will be
marginal at best, but I am sure you realize it.

I can't really comment on the technical stuff without trying, except
that apparently the tutorial assumes that you aready have a) hosted
server, b) DNS, c) backup, d) some sort of redundancy setup, e)
configured web server, etc. Knowing you, you probably have. ;-) As a
generic "get rid of GMail in 2 hours" recipe for amateur cooks it may
flop though. ;-)

Good luck,
